Bernard needs HELP

AVGWarhawk · 02-04-07, 11:48 AM

OK, Bernard wanted to uninstall SH3 that is modded only with GWX. DO NOT ASK WHY BERNARD WANTED TO UNINSTALL THE GAME!!! Save Bernard from more embarassment! Lets just say it happend after patrol #2

Anyway, I cannot uninstall the game for a fresh install of SH3/patch/GWX. It basically stops and says something is wrong. I do not recall what it said. OK, with that said, I'm an idiot(Bernard) on this issue. Has anyone run into this and what was the solution. Any help would be appreciated because the land is too dry and I long for the sea

Hi mate! Just use the ADD/REMOVE programs in your control panel. This should work, i think..

If you cant uninstall using the add\remove just delete the SilentHunterIII folder
Insert DVD
Hit install
Hit repair

As the game is not uninstalled properly that should work
Never had to unistall game before
I always have 4 or 5 installs on and just delete the one I no longer want
Using the above method to add a new one

Alright men, add/remove in control panel shows error1316a network error windows sh3.msi.

I will attempt using the disk. Here goes nothing

Try running windows in safe mode, and then remove the install..just my 2 cents..

OK, I'll take your 2 cents because times is tuff!!!

What I did was file search the entire harddrive. Deleted all the things related to the game. I went to add/remove programs and clicked on remove. It asked to modify, repair, uninstall. This time I clicked on modify. She loaded off the disc. I was able to patch successfully. Now to install GWX and off I go. Thanks for the input gents. You guys never fail!

I'm a Bernard
